Let's assume they got all the DNC mail and released it. How was that hacking the election?
The same way changing weather patterns like ultra-cold winters is global warming: they've said it enough that it would be political suicide to drop the narrative at this point.
A great example is the great barrier reef's "bleaching" - 70% of the damage to that reef happened due to Paul Allan anchoring his boat over top of it several times with a 300ft anchor chain dragging across it as the wind blew the boat around.
I could argue this scientifically and rationally from behind a burned-out and slightly irradiated russian T90 battle tank with my parents, only to have them insist Sean Hannity was right and that my liberal agenda better not come up during the militias rationing of radiation blocking iodine tablets and canned beef.
In turn the people running the world are those who marketings/sales/business people like, most of whom are overwhelmingly sociopathic. When you're only skill is talking people into buying things you yourself don't care very much about it stands to reason the people you are going to consider competent are going to share that same skill as a minimum. If they aren't talking themselves up to get a position they aren't likely to get the position.
Times change. Banks have to make money. If you were a banker, you would instantly recognize simple facts. But you are not, so you will never understand. Charge 9% on student loans? Their's a good reason for that.
Nobody deserves to make as much of a share of the wealth in circulation as they do. The fact they make it is reason enough to hang them all.
Ubuntu is the only Linux distro I've ever used which had auto-updates enabled on a server. Suffice to say that after 1-2 years running smoothly and forgetting about it the thing updated its node.js version, tanking applications which required months to repair (before the package.json aspect was a standard thing to use for NPM packages.) Combine that with overly-complex-impossible-to-secure nonsense like systemd and I can soundly say fuck Ubuntu, never again.
Labor is worth exactly what someone will pay. The same goes for real estate, vehicles and baseball cards. Just because some magazine says a rookie card is worth $20, that doesn't mean you can ever find someone willing to pay that rate.
Wrong. Labor is worth what the buyers and sellers agree to. The buyers are attempting to usurp the population of their own nations by importing people willing to work for less, that's actual treason.
I don't see the relevance. You can't educate somebody to be highly intelligent either.
That's the point. They're trying to solve a labor "shortage" caused by a lack of the higher-end of Humanity, but the fact is the higher end of Humanity is always going to be the higher end. It's the result of misallocated resources (people not at the higher-end controlling the resources, hiring processes, etc) to not see something so blatant.
They care precisely because they exist to make money. The pool of skilled labour is limited to the point that is making it hard for them to get the staff they need, so the obvious solution is to expand the pool. Diversity, H1B, education programmes...
There is plenty of skilled labor, they just don't want to pay what it's worth.
I don't understand why companies would even give a shit about cultural or demographic homogeneity issues. They exist to make money, period. Nothing else matters, except as it relates to that.
Because it's easy to pay people less who are already accustomed to lower pay and the people capable of high intellect jobs who make it in and are entirely qualified get promoted to the top, assume everyone with the same skin color as them is just as good as they themselves are and try to promote it (e.g. the whole "Microsoft has too many white males" bit from a few years back, where the MS CEO at the time drove Nokia into the ground by firing every white male (which was the whole engineering department.)
It uses the same buses and hardware outside the CPU. The CPU speed is typically much faster than the bus speed (typically as in unless you build some custom machine from the group up.)
So Intels processors are being slowed down because of the spy chip? Citations needed by reputable sources like Wikipedia and Youtube.
Really? You need a citation to explain that two things competing for and obtaining a finite resource will make that resource attainable at less than peak rates? You don't belong here.
Moore's law is in fact alive, but Intel added ME to its CPUs. That means a second processor in the same box as the first, only it's for the government to spy on you, not for you to use. That's a fixed overhead that was most noticeable when it was first implemented several years back - when CPUs seemed to get slower - they've once again started to catch up to where they were. If they replaced the ME architecture with more cores you would definitely see a ~2x boost in performance, but of course that won't happen so they'll just keep competing with each other over bus constraints (network, HDD, peripherals, etc) and you won't notice the speed enhancements as much.
While I agree with the idea that any science conducted should be available to the public that pays for it, it seems like the current proposal is a stepping stone to (a) Allow lay persons (or even entire industries with paid "scientists") to challenge the results
This is what Liberals (especially the ones who "love science") tend to fail to grasp: science is not a means of rule, if it goes unchallenged it is not science. Either makes laws haphazardly and suffer the consequences of an untrusting body of citizens or make them soundly, you don't get to say "trust me, this is sound" and have every just go along thinking "it's OK guys, they have a scientist that told them something magical."
EVERYONE, and I do mean everyone, makes mistakes from time to time - scientists have been responsible for some of the most profound ones in history. Science is as much about eliminating Human error as it is about discovering or predicting things (arguably moreso because the latter two don't happen without the first.) Unchallenged data/results/hypothesis are no better than the ravings of a hippy on LSD, in any regard.
And despite what the conspiracy mongerers might claim this is why most rejected FOI requests to science orgs occur. Because they are commercially forbidden from compliance on pain of retribution by the legal system
Nice try, but no. FOI requests of to science orgs occur because they are hiding something. Research coming from multinationals shouldn't even be allowed, but this is a baby step in the right direction. For years regulations have been pushed "because we say so" - that isn't democracy, at best it's oligarchy and most of the time it would fall more under an ochlocracy directed by a bunch of globalists with separate interests.
There is a difference between elections and referendums. In an election the people choose representatives to represent them in making decisions. In a referendum the representatives or their leaders are too cowardly/sly/divided/scared to make a decision and throw it back at the people.
A democracy implicitly states that smarter decisions happen by representatives than by letting the people have a direct say. Boaty McBoatface is an example of a stupid result from a referendum; it would never have happened if representatives had chosen it.
Wrong. Representative democracy is the result of technological limitations and lies told by oligarchies. Boaty McBoatface is an example of someone asking a massive number of people a question not worth their time and only getting the responses from idiots with too much spare time within that massive group. Using this as an example of idiots making bad decisions via direct democracy does more to outline your own logical inconsistencies than it does to highlight any in democracy.

Not so much self-trained as trained on the job by expert co-workers.
That's not a working strategy. You can't train someone to be highly intelligent, they are born with it and develop into it or they don't have it.

Time definitely existed.
Nope. Time, much like space, doesn't exist, it's just a coordinate system. The universe is static.
